Plato's Allegory of the Cave

Today in class we talked about Plato's allegory of the Cave. We learned about the three parts of the allegory: setting the scene, the three stages of liberation, and the prisoner returns to the cave. In the first section, setting the scene, it explained that there were prisoners in a cave that had been in there since childbirth so they know no different. The prisoners are shackled up and cannot move. They are forced to stare at one wall and there are people that hold up objects which create shadows that the prisoners are forced to look at.In the second part, the three stages of liberation, one prisoner was released out of the cave and into the real world. At first it was painful for the prisoner to look at the light and they had to get accustomed to it. Then they were able to look at the sun itself and know that it had a lot of power and was in charge of the seasons and governs everything in sunlight. The prisoner also learns by what it was taught through the shadows. The last part...

Test Review

Today in class you gave us our tests back. I got an 85 on it, which I am pretty happy about but I could have done better. The questions that I got wrong were simple mistakes that I could easily work on before we have to take exams. After you gave us our tests back we reviewed it. We went over every question and read out loud the answers. This for me is very beneficial because I feel like when I hear the information I retain it better. I feel like keeping and reviewing these tests will help me in the long run when I take the final, which is not very far from now. Overall I did ok on my test, but I think that I could have studied a little more and gotten a better grade, but I can use what I have learned to help me on my exam.
